Random spam + viruses to undefined addresses on my domain

Question :

For some reason today I’m getting a lot of spam generated to random email addresses to and from my domain. I assume this is a virus scam or other net trick.
My catch-all is directing all these random address to my main account.

How do you elimate the catch all address or is there another solution?

Thanks

Answer:

Hi,

Unfortunatly this is becoming more and more common. I would recommend you delete the catch-all address. Catch-all’s used to be a very useful type of email address but now that spammers and virus writers are starting to bombard lots of random addresses at domains we are recommending people stop using catch-alls.

You can delete your catch-all by doing the following :

1. Go into your email control panel

2. Click on “Edit existing POP3 accounts”

3. Click on “Set catchall email deleted” near the bottom of that page.
